A data manager in a school, currently pursuing an MSc in Data Science, is exploring the role of a data scientist within educational institutions. With access to student performance data from four secondary schools and potentially two or three primary schools, the individual is seeking to leverage this data for valuable projects. Despite the availability of prebuilt analytics tools and government performance measures, the data manager questions the necessity and viability of developing new predictive tools for student performance. The job typically involves more than just maintaining Management Information Systems (MIS) and basic data analysis; it includes the potential for creating innovative projects that could enhance educational outcomes. The data manager is open to suggestions on projects that could add value, indicating a proactive approach to career development in a challenging job market.
